    Best Pho Ga in the countyyyyy!!! Clean, service is fast and friendly staffs. Highly recommend

    Jennifer L.

    First of all, I don't understand why this place has a 4.5-star rating. My coworkers and I ordered three dishes. An order of six chicken wings cost $16, which felt overpriced for the portion size. The miến gà was bland and lacked flavor. The shaken beef with deep-fried rice paper had a slight crunch, but overall it was soggy and not what I was expecting. We placed our online order at 11:02 AM and didn't receive our food until 11:50 AM. During that time, we repeatedly asked the staff to check on our takeout order, but they would simply tell us to "hold on" and never seemed to follow up with the kitchen. Every time an employee walked by, we felt completely ignored. By that point, we were losing our patience from waiting so long. Several other customers were also frustrated some even asked for refunds or canceled their orders because of the excessive wait time. Overall, the food was disappointing, the service was poor, and the wait was unacceptable. Unfortunately, I will not be returning.

    Nice Pho Ga establishment in the heart of Garden Grove! This family style restaurant has a lot to offer, serving a variety of staple Vietnamese dishes. As per the name, their specialty is Pho Ga, which is rice noodle soup with chicken. We were seated and served relatively quickly. We ordered Pho Ga Dac Biet (Rice Noodles with Chicken, Dac Biet). The broth was nostalgic, warming, and flavorful. The chicken and veggies were pretty standard. Overall, we thought this restaurant served great food but the price was rather steep for its relatively small portion size. Would recommend to those in the area looking for solid Pho Ga!

    This is my favorite spot for pho ga aka chicken pho. Their chicken is fresh and so tender. The broth is so clean and flavorful, it warms your soul and stomach on any day. The flavor is so good. Highly recommend anyone to go here when you're not feeling good, when it's cold or for something different from beef pho. The service is great. They're all super nice and attentful. The ambiance is very reminisce of a relaxing mom and pop pho restaurant. Very family friendly.

    1. The pho had good broth and chicken! I love that I can have the chicken cooked an on the side! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes! The interior is cozy! 3. The staff was friendly and timely with my order! They have a robot server! 4. The spot only has indoor seatings! There are a lot of tables! 5. Lot has a lot of parking! Nearby parking can get crowded depending on time and day! Note: There is a restroom available for customers! Photo: Pho Ga Combo and Vietnamese Iced Coffee

    Food is good and authentic just the right size serving. We ordered Pho rare steak and crispy fired chicken with crispy skin my son loved it. We got seated fast on a Saturday night dinner. Fast service. Music is nice instrumental medley a good family style restaurant where you can savor delicious meals and good vibes.

    Came into town for New Years wanted to try this place with my daughter since we were close to this place. Good here is very good. We ordered pho chicken combo( pho ga đặc biệt) ít was very good the noodle and broth in a bowl and the chicken was on the side with a separate small bowl of fish sauce and ginger to dip the chicken. Service was good didn't have a wait at all. Theres alittle robot brings out a tray with your entree instead of a real person. Thought it was cool about it. I haven't been to any restaurant that has this before. Ambience here , it was close to corner , was easy to find, inside is alittle small but food here is good.

    Special Chicken Noodles with Gio Chào Quay

    Coming to town this time, we decided to try some new places, and Pho Hai Van was our first stop. It did not disappoint! We ordered the Special Chicken Noodles, and the chicken was incredibly tender. The broth was flavorful and perfectly balanced, and the fresh thick noodles were a great touch. The only downside was that the chicken wings were a bit chewy. We also asked for giá trụng (blanched bean sprouts), but they initially brought out regular bean sprouts. However, once we mentioned it, they promptly brought us a fresh plate of blanched bean sprouts, which we appreciated. Other than that, everything was absolutely delicious. We really enjoyed our meal and would gladly come back again. On a side note, the tables and chairs are looking quite worn out and could use some updating. That's just my personal opinion, but I think replacing them would make the dining experience even better.

    Yum

    Foods are delicious and staffs are friendly and quick, very busy though.. waiting a little long.. the place is small

    Had the mien ga (glass noodle chicken soup) Serving size of meats 3/5 Broth taste 5/5 for chicken soup! Condiment station - stocked and has fresh ground pepper corns which are grinded by the electronic device. Neat seeing the robot coming out with the goods. Wouldn't recommend their beef pho as the broth was a bit lacking.

    Second time here. I can't get enough of this place. The flavor is good. Clean broth. GREAT family restaurant and the best part is it's open late!!! Stopped by on a rainy day. It's like mamas home cooking.

I've ordered it here at least three times, and it's been consistently outstanding every single visit. The fish is perfectly seasoned, and the aroma from the dill and scallions alone is enough to make your mouth water. I also highly recommend their selection of congee. Each version is made to order with your choice of meats, and the porridge has that silky-smooth, creamy consistency that makes it the ultimate comfort food. Rich, hearty, and incredibly satisfying, it's one of those dishes that keeps you coming back for another spoonful.

Unfortunately, my actual experience did not quite match what I had expected from the reviews and promotions. I ordered the Beef Stew Noodle Soup, and my husband ordered the Roasted Duck Noodle Soup. For me, the broth was very light and lacked flavor. If I'm being completely honest, it tasted quite bland. The beef was also very tough and did not have much seasoning or aroma. It tasted more like plain boiled beef than beef stew. The roasted duck itself was actually pretty good and had decent flavor, but the broth did not complement the duck at all. It almost felt like the duck and the soup belonged to two completely different dishes. It is a little difficult to describe, but the flavors just did not come together. On the positive side, the service was friendly, attentive, and quick. The restaurant is not very large, and the dining area did not feel especially open or spacious. I can imagine that it may feel quite crowded on busy weekends. Parking, however, is very convenient and spacious since the restaurant is located in a shopping center with a supermarket. Overall, the service was good, but unfortunately the food did not live up to my expectations, especially the broth.
